Authorities are asking for the public’s help in identifying a man who robbed a clerk at gunpoint Thursday night at the Golden Pantry on Ga. 53.

Hall County Sheriff’s Maj. Jeff Strickland said the man entered the store around 10 p.m. Thursday and pointed a gun at the clerk, demanding money. He then fled with an undisclosed amount of cash in an older-model, red Ford Mustang, Strickland said. No one was hurt in the robbery.

On Friday, authorities released video surveillance images, shown above, of the suspect, who is described as a white male with a thin mustache and beard, about 6 feet tall, between 165 and 185 pounds, wearing a white or beige collared shirt and black scarf or stocking cap on his head.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Hall County Sheriff’s Office at (770) 531-6879.
